Minimizing the Localization Error in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Multi-Objective Optimization Techniques

Abstract

When it comes to remote sensing applications, wireless sensor networks (WSN) are crucial. Because of their small size, low cost, and ability to communicate with one another, sensors are finding more and more applications in a wide range of wireless technologies. The sensor network is the result of the fusion of microelectronic and electromechanical technologies. Through the localization procedure, the precise location of every network node can be determined. When trying to pinpoint the precise location of a node, a mobility anchor can be used in a helpful method known as mobility-assisted localization. In addition to improving route optimization for location-aware mobile nodes, the mobile anchor can do the same for stationary ones. This system proposes a multi-objective approach to minimizing the distance between the source and target nodes by employing the Dijkstra algorithm while avoiding obstacles. Both the Improved Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (IGOA) and the Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA) have been incorporated into multi-objective models for obstacle avoidance and route planning. Accuracy in localization is enhanced by the proposed system. Further, it decreases both localization errors and computation time when compared to the existing systems
